On July 24, the Ghaziabad traffic police rolled out a comprehensive traffic diversion plan that came into effect from July 29
The Ghaziabad district administration has announced that all schools and colleges will remain closed from August 4 to 12 due to the ongoing Kanwar Yatra, according to BP Singh, the district inspector of schools. This decision is being taken to ensure safety as there is heavy movement of Kanwariyas on various routes in the district.
Singh clarified that this closure includes all schools affiliated to CBSE, ICSE, and other boards, as well as degree and higher colleges, including engineering institutions. However, institutions that have already scheduled examinations during this period will be allowed to open. For schools, the administration may opt for an online mode of study at their discretion.
The district has also implemented a comprehensive traffic diversion plan from July 29 to August 12 to manage the flow of Kanwariyas.
